My four tykes brought so much candy home we're gonna be handing over much of the stash to our dentist.Our dentist, like many in your community will buy Halloween candy from kids and donate it to Operation Gratitude, a worthwhile charity that ships the sweets to deployed American service men and women.

Many dentists in my area have the same candy exchange policy. Trading candy for money instead of cavities, is a good idea.

This was the first Halloween that my eldest son, didn't trick or treat. Too old for such kid's stuff. Makes me feel like a real old timer. Time passes by rather quickly. Now we're planning our Thanksgiving dinner.
